Setback

Feeling helpless must be the most horrible feeling in the universe, when you want to do something to make things better but know you can't or just don't know what could you do.

Why, you idiot? Why?!

I have a very ugly feeling the shit is only starting to pile up. *sigh*
And I so much wish there was a way to stop the time.

People hardly get anywhere by saying "I can't".

But when you feel like you should do something, but cannot put your finger on what that something is, you might actually be doing enough by just that.

You can throw your spoon in every soup you see, but that does no good for anyone -and it hurts you more than you would've guessed (been there, done that. and still doing such a thing too often, stupid me. =P ).

There's always shit that's going to hit the fan. You may sometimes put a bucket between or just shut down the fan... but sometimes it is enough.. or more likely best to just sit back and stay worried.

When that someone you wouldn't like to see hurt is cleaning the ceiling after that shower of crap, you might learn something. And understand that the cleaner had more valuable lesson there.

But this is just sometimes. And I don't even know what you are speaking about, but this is what I thought about after reading your post.

..oh, besides. There is a way to stop the time.. In a way.

stay well, friend. And don't worry yourself to death.. There's plenty of troubles ahead anyway. =D

Thank you for the wise words, and I suppose you're right. *smiles*
It's just... watching something valuable fall down and shatter is always tough, especially when you're not sure how to even try to fix it, in fear of causing unintentionally even more damage. And when it's people you love intentionally inflicting damage upon themselves and things and people around them... *sigh*
I have to say I'm a bit surprised if you haven't heard yet, but I suppose you will soon enough. Not my place to interfere. *sad smile*

I actually heard just few minutes before I wandered here this evening. So I guess it wasn't that hard to see what you were talking about.

And I have to say, that I am in a way glad that you are there, as I can not be. and I thank you for that. *smiles*

Propably one of the hardest thing in life is to tear yourself apart for someone's else sake, and then realize that you should just step back and watch that someone tear him/herself apart. Just to learn something that one will most likely understand just after a long time.

Sometimes people need to run against the wall.. again and again. And friends can't do much more, than just be close, in case one is needed.

I hate these things, as I know I won't sleep well in few days.. Oh well, such is life with people like these.

Would not change a day. *a bit worried smile*
